If you walk on the streets of Kashi and then visit Bhuleshwar of Mumbai, you will likely experience a déjà vu. The bells, the aartis, the chanting and the overall ambience will make you feel present in the holy city of Kashi and not in the financial capital of India. Just like Kashi, there are temples in Bhuleshwar every few steps. Yes, Mumbai has a Mini-Kashi ensconced in it. The biggest landmark close to Bhuleshwar is the temple of Mumbadevi, the presiding deity of Mumbai.
